Description
Electrospun food packaging uses electrostatic forces to create ultra-fine fibers from food-grade materials for improved barrier properties, mechanical strength, and shelf life.
Technical
The electrospinning process involves the use of electrostatic forces to create ultra-fine fibers from food-grade materials, such as proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids, at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The process can take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, depending on the material and equipment used. The resulting fibers have improved barrier properties, mechanical strength, and shelf life compared to traditional packaging materials.
